Ingredients
  

  • 4 no Chicken Drumsticks
  • Sunflower Oil for Deep Frying

For Marination

  • 1 tablespoon Kashmiri Red Chilli Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper powder
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
  • 1 teaspoon Garam masala powder
  • 2 tablespoon Ginger Garlic Paste
  • 2 tablespoon Lemon Juice
  • 2 tablespoon Plain Curd (Yogurt)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt to taste
  • 1 large Egg

For Outer Coating

  • ¼ cup All Purpose Flour
  • ½ cup Rice Flour
  • 1 tablespoon Coriander Seeds crushed roughly
  • 1 tablespoon Fennel Seeds crushed roughly
  • 1 tablespoon Red Chilli Flakes
  • 3 sprig Curry Leaves chopped roughly
  • 1 teaspoon Salt or to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preparing Chicken - Take your cleaned chicken drumsticks, make deep slashes on it using a sharp knife. Pat dry with paper towel and set aside.
  • Prepare Marination - Take all ingredients given for marination in a bowl and mix well to combine. You can taste this marination at this point and adjust salt and lemon accordingly.
  • Marinating Chicken - Add chicken into the marination. Mix really well and set aside for 15 to 30 minutes.
  • Outer Coating - While chicken is marinating. Prepare outer coating. Combine rice flour, plain flour, and all the ingredients into the flour and mix well. Set this aside.
  • Dredging Chicken - Now take the marinated chicken, add a tablespoon of the flour mixture from the outer coating into the chicken to help with binding. Mix it really well. Now take this chicken and add it to the flour mixture and press it gently so the chicken is well coated with the flour. Place this on a wire rack to rest for few minutes.
  • Frying Chicken - Meanwhile heat oil for deep frying in a pan on medium high heat. Once the oil is hot enough, add the chicken into the oil and fry for 8 to 10 minutes on medium heat. I covered the pan loosely with a lid and fried for even frying. Now flip over the chicken and fry uncovered for another 8 minutes. Now remove the chicken on some paper towel. Serve hot.
